Answer 2

Since they want a product, that means multiplication. We want to multiply a whole number and a fraction to get 5/3. When we multiply fractions, you multiply across the numerator and across the denominator. So in this case we want to multiply 2 numbers to get 5 a decimal 2 numbers to get 3. Each of these numbers only have 2 factors so
5 × 1 = 5 and
3 × 1 = 3

So we are going to multiply

5 × 1/3 =
5/1 × 1/3 = 5/3
